Violence – Obsession?

I was going through the newspaper and there were news about communal fights between two communities in Orissa, India. There were many reports of bomb blasts in recent times at various places in India and these blasts were made by some group which upholds some cause which it thinks is right for its own people. I was just wondering how come it is right for some people and wrong for many others. If it is so is it right or wrong? These thoughts always come into my mind when I think of terrorists bombing some place or the other. If someone has to give up his own life for some reason then according to him that reason should be right in all possible ways. It will never be right for the others since everyone thinks differently. Somethings may be right for some and may not be the same for others.

Thinking deeply about the terrorist activities, the following thoughts came into my mind. Why do they indulge in these kinds of activities? The answers which I could figure out is, they get money if they carry out such activities or they believe in their principles deeply and assume whatever they do is right or they don’t like something and wish to destroy them for some reason. I could not figure out any bigger possibilities than these. Why I put money in the first is, people agree to disagree that money is evil but they badly need it and after certain level it becomes a big obsession. Nothing becomes as obsessive as money. Some people believe in their principles strongly and that becomes an addiction and whatever they do to support their belief is always right for them and they can justify the heinous acts that they do with the belief that they have. Some people just can’t stand others and instead of looking for better alternatives in life as to how to coexist with them they prefer not to have them at all in life and try to hurt them and kill them for their own good.

Financial Goal – 5th Week

This week was bad… I was under loss of Rs. 2000. So effectively I am in Red right now. The markets were down and I was not sure whether to wait for a real long time or not and then decided to remove my funds and then get back after couple of days. I wish to make some descent money from now on.

I wish I am always in Green making money and not reporting loss anytime to any of you following me. But that is not how markets work neither me. I don’t think I can always make money in market. There will be ups and downs. The thing is how I handle the downs ensures my path to my dreams. I am working hard to make my dreams become true. Hope things go fine and I am back to green in some time.

Effectively, till last week I was making a profit of Rs. 700 and this week I had a loss of Rs. 2000. So put together I am down by Rs. 1300. I hope to recover it and make much more. Most of them are scared in market at the moment and heavy selling takes place everyday. God knows how long this is gonna happen. I want to trade in futures as soon as possible and make a descent amount in near future. If I go at this rate I know I can’t make it up to my dream.

Money, the SATAN

Do you think money is the Satan in your life? Is money causing all the problems in your life? You could not do what you really wanted because of financial freedom? Is money so important in your life? Do you think money is the root of all evil?

I have seen people struggle their life to earn money and they claim that it is source of all evil in the world. If they are so sure of it then why do they have to struggle so much all their life to earn the source of all evil. I would prefer not to earn evil. Why on earth should I earn evil? Does it make sense? I love money. Continue reading
